BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

None.

Below, exemplary embodiments will be described in detail with reference to accompanying drawings so as to be easily realized by a person having ordinary knowledge in the art. The inventive concept may be embodied in various forms without being limited to the exemplary embodiments set forth herein. Descriptions of well-known parts are omitted for clarity, and like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In this disclosure, a wood adhesive using a cellulose derivative is provided. The cellulose derivative has a structure as shown in Chemical Formula 1, wherein R is H or CH₂CO₂Na, n is an integer.

According to some embodiments, the wood adhesive comprises a first agent and a second agent. The first agent and the second agent may be stored separately, and not be mixed until the wood adhesive is needed to be used. However, the embodiments are not limited thereto.

The first agent may be a main agent. The first agent comprises sodium carboxymethyl cellulose having a molecular weight from about 15,000 to about 500,000 and a degree of substitution from about 0.4 to about 2. The term “degree of substitution” is defined as the average number of carboxymethyl group in each glucose unit. In some embodiments, the first agent may further comprise water. The first agent exists as an aqueous phase, and the sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is present in the aqueous phase. However, the embodiments are not limited thereto.

The second agent may be a curing agent. The second agent comprises polymeric quaternary amine. In some embodiments, the polymeric quaternary amine may be reacted from polyamidoamine and epichlorohydrin. Such polymeric quaternary amine comprises a unit as shown in Chemical Formula 2, wherein m is an integer.

In some embodiments, the second agent may further comprise water. The second agent exists as an aqueous phase, and the polymeric quaternary amine is present in the aqueous phase. However, the embodiments are not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, the wood adhesive may further comprise various additives. For example, the wood adhesive may further comprise at least one of fillers and a flame resisting agent. The fillers may comprise at least one kind of starch and wood chips. These additives may be added into the first agent, the second agent, or the mixed wood adhesive. In some embodiments, the pH value of the wood adhesive may be changed to about 2 to about 12. For example, the pH value of the mixed wood adhesive may be changed. However, the embodiments are not limited thereto.

In the wood adhesive according to the above embodiments, the biomass material is used as the main agent. As such, the formaldehyde release problem is solved. Further, the use of the wood adhesive according to the above embodiments will not be affected by the shortage of the petrochemical materials.

In the wood adhesive according to the above embodiments, the cellulose derivative is used. Compared to the commonly used soy protein, which is the most widely used biomass material, the cellulose derivatives are more abundant in nature, and not needed to be obtained from food crops. Further, compared to the wood adhesive using the soy protein, the wood adhesive according to the above embodiments is less likely to rot and gives no soybean odor.

A method for adhering wood materials using a wood adhesive according to any one of the above embodiments may comprise providing a first wood block and a second wood block, and bonding the first wood block with the second wood block by the wood adhesive. For example, the wood adhesive may comprise a first agent and a second agent, the first agent comprises sodium carboxymethyl cellulose having a molecular weight from about 15,000 to about 500,000 and a degree of substitution from about 0.4 to about 2, and the second agent comprises polymeric quaternary amine.

More specifically, the first wood block and the second wood block may be pre-treated, such as be heated for a period of time so as to remove water, essential oils, volatile compounds and the like, and kill insect eggs. When intending to bond the first wood block with the second wood block, the first agent and the second agent may be mixed. In some embodiments, the first agent and the second agent may be mixed at a ratio from about 0.25:1 to about 1:0.1, or from about 0.7:1 to about 1:0.2. Then, the mixed wood adhesive is applied (such as by coating) to the surface(s) of the first wood block and the second wood block to be bonded. The wood adhesive may be applied to both of the surfaces to be bonded, or only one of the surfaces to be bonded. Thereafter, the wood adhesive may be cured by applying a pressure. In some embodiments, a pressure of about 10 kg/cm² may be applied at about 5° C. to 45° C. for about 10 to 30 minutes, and then a pressure of about 10 kg/cm² may be applied at about 90° C. to 230° C. for about 3 to 25 minutes. As such, the curing of the wood adhesive is accelerated.

The curing of the wood adhesive according to the embodiments is through various reaction mechanisms. One is the cross-linking of the polymeric quaternary amine itself, the product is shown in Chemical Formula 3, wherein R′ is the polymeric quaternary amine.

One is the reaction between the polymeric quaternary amine and the hydroxyl group of the sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, the hydroxyl group of the cellulose in the first wood block, or the hydroxyl group of the cellulose in the second wood block, to form an “—O—” connection. The product is shown in Chemical Formula 4, wherein R″ is the sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, the cellulose or the like.

Another one is the reaction between the polymeric quaternary amine and the carboxylate anion of the sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, to form a “—COO—” connection. The product is shown in Chemical Formula 5, wherein R′″ is the sodium carboxymethyl cellulose.

Since the wood blocks are bonded with the wood adhesive by various reaction mechanisms, a good bonding characteristic is obtained through the method for adhering wood materials according to the embodiments.

In some embodiments, at least one of the first wood block and the second wood block comprises a particleboard, an oriented strand board, a fiberboard, a plywood, a block board, or a laminate. In some embodiments, the first agent and the second agent of the wood adhesive may exist as aqueous phases. In some embodiments, the wood adhesive may further comprise various additives. For example, the wood adhesive may further comprise fillers or a flame resisting agent. In some embodiments, the wood adhesive may have a pH value from about 2 to 12, or from about 3 to 11.53.

A composite wood structure using a wood adhesive according to any one of the above embodiments may be bonded by a method for adhering wood materials according to any one of the above embodiments. According to some embodiments, a composite wood structure may comprise a first wood block, a second wood block and an adhesion layer bonding the first wood block with the second wood block. The adhesion layer is formed by mixing a first agent and a second agent of a wood adhesive according to any one of the above embodiments, and curing the wood adhesive. For example, the wood adhesive may comprise a first agent and a second agent, the first agent comprises sodium carboxymethyl cellulose having a molecular weight from about 15,000 to about 500,000 and a degree of substitution from about 0.4 to about 2, and the second agent comprises polymeric quaternary amine.
